Crude petroleum contains sulfur compounds, most of which are removed during refining. However, some of these sulfur compounds remain in the refined petroleum product and can have a corroding action on various nonferrous metals.

Metalworking Fluids are used in machining, cutting and grinding operations. Their main functions consist of reducing heat (cooling) and friction (lubrication), removing particles and preventing corrosion.

Turbines and auxiliary equipment such as pumps, generators and compressors are key to electric power generation. Maintaining them in top condition is therefore essential to prevent failures and power breakdowns, which can be extremely costly to power generation companies as well as to the populations that depend upon them.
